How Kane and Son became top EPL double act

Harry Kane and Son Heung-min have combined for an assist and a goal for a record 37th time in the Premier League during Tottenham's 4-0 win at Leeds.

Spurs were already cantering to victory on Saturday when Kane's superb pass over the top of the Leeds defence after 85 minutes set Son free and, after controlling the ball, the South Korean made no mistake with a composed finish.

Here's how the Spurs duo compare to the most in-sync pairs of the Premier League era.

HARRY KANE and SON HEUNG-MIN

(Tottenham, 37 goal/assist combinations)

Kane has now scored 99 goals and Son 61 when they have shared the pitch in the league, with Son setting up Kane on 19 occasions and Kane returning the favour 18 times - meaning 37 of their 160 goals as a partnership have seen them assist one another.

Their 14 combinations in 2020-21 set a single-season record and while they have not reproduced that form this term, Kane set up Son against Newcastle in October while the England captain's first goal against Manchester City came from Son's cross.

DIDIER DROGBA and FRANK LAMPARD

(Chelsea, 36)

Lampard is Chelsea's record goalscorer with Drogba fourth on that list, and the pair's Stamford Bridge careers overlapped long enough for them to score 152 between them in the same line-up.

Almost one in four of those saw them provide the chances for one another, firmly establishing them as one of the most effective attacking partnerships ever, even as Lampard operated from midfield.

THIERRY HENRY and ROBERT PIRES

(Arsenal, 29)

The longest-serving and overall highest-scoring partnership on the list - though Kane and Son are closing in - Henry and Pires shared 162 goals when both on the pitch together for Arsenal.

Henry's 108 was exactly twice as many as Pires
